I can't remember the last time we got consecutive years on consecutive days.

I'm sure it must have happened some time in the past 20 years but I don't recall it. Hell, it's rare that we even get consecutive years in the same week.

I know several folks who've had that this month. Fingers crossed that I stay lucky.
Early BOS Neil!

Early BOS, Neil. Doowah...

this may be the only time i ever vote neil young bos.

way to go ronnie - take the blame!
looks like we might have a fine set.

"a fanaticism that people from a democratic country cannot know" (words to that effect)
Pretty chilling in light of our current homegrown fanatics

That pessimistic about '83? There's always Prince... "Delirious" would get me to change my vote.

But OUR fanatics are "good christian americans". Only fanatics from other religions are evil. Which is why our fanatics now want to be called "evangelical christians" rather than "christian fundamentalists" because the latter sounds too much like "islamic fundamentalists".

time to drive to the office; no school today! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Take vitamins, get your sleep. The latter is where I blew it--had a couple of late nights last week and that was it for me.

This Phil and/or Genesis song makes me sleepy.

no, i'm that pessimistic about neil young. but i like that song. and the harvest moon album.

BOS so far for Midnight Oil. I dug this song back then.
-
This (The Power and the Passion) could be worthy of a BOS vote--their first US chart appearance, yes? In the heat of Rock of the Eighties.
-
Urth - glad you're feeling better.
Re: fundie Christians: indeed. I'm utterly fatigued at the notion that Americans, particular Christian Americans, can do no wrong and that to suggest otherwise is somehow unpatriotic or even treasonous.
Don't recognize this "power and the passion" song. Sounds like Midnight Oil, were they around then?

how many albums did they make between '83 and '88? "cause I swear I don't remember hearing them on the radio again until "Beds are Burning".
-

At least we're not suss-suss-suddio-ing today. BTW, what is a "Sussudio"?

(shrug) I dunno. I just like 'em. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a tamborine seminar to attend (it's being taught by gypsies!)

according to this guy, it was the name of Phil's daughter's horse :roll:

You should know that Ol' Dirty Bastard covered that song.
And it's not half-bad.

And tramps. And Thieves. Ah, but they're cool people. Oh no, wait, that's "lovers muggers & thieves".

Well, a Jim Capaldi appearance was inevitable this week. A lovely remake.

i thought it was what you called morning-after hair. when your heair is all crazy after a night of getting after it, you say you have a sussudio-do?

yes, just swell...

His version is "Soo Soo Soodi-'Ho"
-
Why on Earth would someone do a cover of "Sussudio". Why would a little girl name her horse "Sussudio" for that matter?
God, I hate that song.
-
I wonder if a black hole would spontaneously open up if Dave played the stunning and unfathomable Marc Almond and Gene Pitney's "Something's Gotten Hold of My Heart."
Snoozers so far. No BOS from me. I need "No Parking on the Dance Floor."
-
some different stuff. Maybe "I'm Still Standing" or "I'll Tumble 4 Ya" or "Pass The Dutchie"... Has Dave played "What About Me" (Moving Pictures) before ?

Agreed and agreed. Tho' the Capaldi was nice. But where's the funk?
Oh, the Pitney/Almond duet was '89, BTW

This may be why we're getting 83 today after 82 and that guy's bay area swan song yesterday.

BOS for me, tasty indeed, and shows off his expressive voice.

Bonus-BOS to "Holiday Road" or whatever it is they're singing in the NL's Vacation song.

And to think our jr. high band was going to play that at some point. I think we rehearsed it a few times but an un-pretty song not translated well played by junior high musicians... well it was bound to be a train wreck, and our director thankfully threw it out. And I think literally too :)
-

"I'll Tumble 4 Ya" would be a pleasant surprise. Dave's Culture Club repertoire is limited to "Karma Chameleon" and "Church of the Poison Mind," I think.
The other two would be great to hear more often, though I *think* both were '82. And certainly I've never heard "What About Me" here. Good calls, all.
-

Amazingly, Dave's never played "I'm Still Standing", and the other 3 have made maybe made one appearance each in the 12 years I've been listening.

Yuck.

Wrong Eurythmics track, Dave. This was '86.

I wanna hear the whole thing! Lindsey Buckingham doing the best Kenny Loggins imitation EVER. Woulda been my BOS fer shurr!
-

LOL, airbrush. Oh, well. What do I know anyway? It was, like, a huge hit and everyone thinks Phil Collins is awesome. All I do is play tambourine (I spelled it right this time just for kicks).
-

uh... '85, actually. Not your morning for dates. :P
-
"Daddy says I'm the best."
Most gloriously depraved line from a gloriously depraved movie.

Wow, I'm surprised -- I thought Annie and Dave had taken a relatively lengthy layoff after the "1984" soundtrack.

ditto!
-
well, I no longer repeat myself, I now recognize this as somebody or other doing a song called "Whistle Down the Wind" but Pina Palladino's bass line leaves everything else about the song in the dust.
-
VHM Nick Heyward, "Whistle Down the Wind". ending tastefully, as Dave will no doubt say.
"hope you're feeling fine/ hope you're feeling mine" indeed!

Yeah, now everytime I hear Jackson Browne I think about your snarky comment! Hey, his early stuff is great. This era leaves me pretty unmoved.

for the clueless, that is what comedians call a "callback". See a previous thread for pocs Leonard Cohen/Jackson Browne remark.
We now return you to our previously scheduled thread...

you know, i have his albums, i really like his songs...and his voice is nice. but there's something about the voice/music combo. makes me want to punch him, or something.

I think his overtly political '80s stuff holds up quite well, relevance-wise.

For slipping in Would I Lie To You from 85... no one emailed him i guess? or was I just not listening carefully enough...
(trying to do about 10 different things at once here...)

I emailed him, just as I did the other day when he played a song from the wrong year.

I gotta agree with you. His albums through the 70s were great, but he seemed to lose something post-Running On Empty that he only regained in part and for a short time on his Lives in the Balance (the overtly political stuff Mike made reference to) from which I believe we heard a track last week. But since that time I can't say I've heard anything new of his that even remotely stands up. (And the Hold Out album, which directly followed Running on Empty, is TERRIBLE--shows the negative effect cocaine can have on an artist, I think.
-

On that we do agree. It seemed such a lame attempt to write a bunch of songs that sounded like his previous "hits". I assumed it was record company pressure at the time; I didn't realize it was his coke period.
"It's a helluva drug."

I don't think it was the beginning of that period by any stretch. If you listen to Running On Empty, there are many veiled and not-so-veiled references to cocaine (hell, there's a song called Cocaine on there), but I think it began to affect his creative talents most profoundly after that album was recorded and continued to do so for a good while. He still had hits (Hold Out had several, and Somebody's Baby from Fast Times... was huge) but they weren't of the quality he'd produced in the early to mid-70s.
